Divine Love Messages from Jesus and Celestials 1915 January
January 1st, 1915
I am here, Mother.
I am the mother of your friend (Dr. Leslie Stone). I want to tell him how glad I am that I can be with him, and make known to him my presence, the fact that though his mother is a spirit, yet she can be with him and feel for him all the Love which she had for her boy while on Earth. He must not doubt that his mother is here, for she is, and has been with him many times when you were writing, and has sent him some tokens of her Love through his soulmate, Mary.
Why, Leslie, she, I mean your Mary, was a little English girl. When on Earth did not live many miles from your home. If it had been intended, you two could easily have met when you were very young. Of course, you might not have known of the fact that you were soulmates.
I want to tell you now, that Mary is a real existing spirit, who was once a little English girl, and is all beauty and goodness. She is waiting here for you to come to her. When you do, you will not find some shadowy unsubstantial thing of air, but a real live beautiful spirit, with form and features perfect, well defined, and full of animation and pink roses on her cheeks, hair all dark and glossy. Blue eyes, and mouth like cupids. Teeth as you would say like ivory. She is not a very demure little girl either, but is full of Life, Love and happiness. I tell you all this that you may form some idea of her, and be able to see her, to some extent, in your mind's eyes, as you mortals say. More than all, she is so pure and good, and is loved by every spirit with whom she comes in contact.
I will not write much more tonight, but merely add that my prayers for you go out to the Father, and my Faith that he will look after and preserve you for the better things, not only of the Spirit Life, but of the Earth Life, is without a bit of doubting.
I must not write more tonight. In concluding, I must say that you have with you all the Love and blessings of a mother who loved you so much on Earth. So think of me sometimes.
Your own dear and loving mother, Priscilla Stone.

I am here, Jesus.
You are my own True brother and disciple.
I come because you need me, and my Love. I want to tell you that you are very near the Kingdom. Your prayers have been heard. Our Father has given you His Divine Love to a great degree. So you must soon be prepared to take my messages. For the time is getting ripe for the World to receive my Gospel of Love and Peace. Humans are now thinking deeply of Spiritual Things, and want a Gospel that will teach them The Way to the Truth, and to God's Divine Love, and their Eternal Happiness. So do not let the things of Earth keep you from getting more of your Father's Divine Love and Grace in your soul. Be steadfast in your Faith. You will not want for anything that will enable you to become His True Son, and my own Loving disciple, in spreading the Glorious Tidings of Joy and Peace to humankind. Your Love is now so great that you will soon be At-One with your Father, and receive from Him the outpouring of His Divine Love and the Pentecost of the Holy Spirit. Be a human that will not let anything of Earth, or heaven, keep you from doing the work, which I have set before you to do. I am your True helper and protector. You will not suffer for want of anything that will make you free and happy. Be more earnest in your efforts to obtain the Great Boon, which your Father has promised to give you. You will not be disappointed.
You are doing a good work among the spirits.God, Our Father, will Bless you in your endeavor. You must not let doubt, or want of Faith, keep you from doing the great work that you have undertaken. The spirits, whom you have so much helped, will progress towards the Truth, and will remember you when they get the Happiness, which awaits them. Your wife is a beautiful and powerful spirit, who has learned to Love God very much, and who Loves you to an extent that is unusual among spirits, who Love with a Love far exceeding the Love of mortals.
She is now progressing very rapidly. Soon will be very near her Father's Home of Love and Joy. So, you are very much blessed in having such a wife and soulmate. When you come over, you will find a spirit waiting for you that will appear so beautiful to you, that you will wonder how such a thing could be. You may become just as beautiful, and as much possessed of God's Divine Love, if you will only pray, and do His Will while on Earth. It is not necessary for you to wait until you come over in order to get this Divine Love, and become free from sin and error.
I am your True Teacher and brother. I want you to do my will as regards the teaching to humankind of the Truths of the Father.
I do not desire to tell you now of these things. I will in a short time. Then you will know just what the Truth is.
Yes, I know the future. I tell you now, and you must believe, that you will soon be relieved of all your business cares, and be in a condition to give all your time and energies to my work. Do not doubt this any more. I think that this is the best place, though. The place will not determine the best means of doing the work. I mean the place will not be material, except that the place you mention is a good one, as it is near the Capitol of a great nation. Will enable you to make more impression on the World by what you may publish. I do not intend to restrict you to any place. Only take the messages and publish them. You will also teach the Truths by your daily conversations and example. Yes, I remember the saying. It is True. But in your case the same conditions do not exist, as existed when I gave utterance to the saying. Nevertheless, I will guide you when the time comes and you will follow my guidance. It will make little difference to you where you are, for the spread of my Truths is the important thing. Yes, a church will be established. There will be many leaders of my new movement. It will succeed, and supplant all other beliefs in this hemisphere. I mean in the United States and other protestant countries.
The war (WW I) will last until the Germans are subdued. I do not think it will be very long before they will see the utter hopelessness of fighting longer. Then they will submit. A new nation will arise, which will be a nation of the people, governed by the people. Emperors' sons will not have any influence with the people. The nobility will cease to have any power, and will become a part of the people. God will eventually rule human's lives through His Love, for humans will then seek His Love. Peace will be established in the Earth. When my Kingdom comes on the Earth, I will reign in the hearts of humans, not as a ruler, or as a sovereign lord, but as a Prince of Peace, the only son of the Father who was born without sin. All humankind will worship God, in Spirit, and in Truth. War shall be no more. Swords shall be turned into pruning hooks and plowshares. Humans shall know what Peace and Love for one another are.
My second coming will be; as the still small voice that speaks to every human, and tells them that Divine Love is the only thing that is necessary for them to have. When they get that in their souls, all the sins, hatred, and desires for evil will pass away.
I will not desert you in your work. It will prosper. I know that certain churches, I mean the clergy and high officials, will fight my Truths, and the teaching of them to humans.They will not succeed. I will prevail. Humankind will be Redeemed. All will bow down in earnest prayer and thanksgiving to their God. His Divine Love will enter into their hearts. They will be at Peace. Brothers will be brothers indeed. The Fatherhood of God and brotherhood of human will be established. All humans will serve their God.
The Catholic Church, will eventually, as an organization of political power,as a monster of error, and a teacher of doctrines contrary to God's Truths, be utterly destroyed. Its followers will embrace the True Teachings of my Gospel. Many will not embrace these New Teachings though, until the last vestige of the power of this great vampire has utterly disappeared. The priests will be shaken from their seats of power, and will become humans of no influence among the people.
My Truths, will destroy all the errors which they have preached, and through fear, caused their deluded followers to embrace and believe.
You must not write more tonight, as you are tired. So with my Love and blessings, I am, your brother and teacher, Jesus.
January 5th, 1915
I am here, Your grandmother.
I heard, and you must believe that it was the Master. He was writing, and was so in earnest, that you must believe that his prophecies will come True.
I am so glad that he wrote you again.
Good night, your Grandmother (Ann Rollins)
You must stop now. Your own Helen.
January 7th, 1915
I am here, Helen.
I am very happy, and you are a little better. There is no need to worry about Nita, as she is now very happy in her school. I will try tonight to tell you of what I am now doing in my new home, and in the Earth Sphere, where I am most of the time helping spirits.
Well in my home, I am so very much engaged in studying the Laws of Communicating with you, that I have hardly time for anything else. I am now quite certain that I understand how to talk to you in an independent voice, also to materialize. So you must not be astonished anytime to hear my voice, or see me in the form of a materialized spirit. I am also trying to help the spirits who are in a condition of blindness and doubt.
I am living with your mother in her home, but I am not so spiritual as she. We are both very happy though, and have everything that heart could wish for. The music is so beautiful that I cannot describe it to you. Even the Love, which helps to make the music, is of such an intensity that you could not possibly understand if I should attempt to tell it to you. My home here is much more beautiful than that which I had in the Third Sphere. Everything is beyond what I conceived when I lived there. The house, trees, flowers and fruits are very much more beautiful and delightful. No one could be anything but happy in such a home. We have nothing to interfere with our happiness. Every one is a delightful companion, full of love and beauty. I have met many spirits that I did not know, either on Earth, or in the Spirit World, before I came to this place, both men and women.
Yes, we have rivers, lakes, fields and mountains, all the beautiful landscapes that you can imagine. I not only enjoy these things, but they are more real than those of Earth. I am sometimes engaged in painting these flowers and landscapes, and have many pictures, which others painted. I find that I can paint with a more artistic touch than when on Earth. I have no trouble in drawing, as you know I had some in my Earth pictures. I am also studying music, and especially my vocal lessons. You will be much surprised when you hear me sing, as you cannot conceive what a different voice I have. Sometimes I try to sing some of the songs that I used to sing to you, but they are not pretty in comparison to the songs we have here, in either in the music, or the sentiments.
Well as you are not so much interested in my description, I will not attempt further portrayal of the things here. Yes, I can see it in your brain. You are thinking about other things, so you see, I know. Yes, but you must think of what I write, for that is necessary in order for you to write. While I can guide your hand, yet I have also to use your brain to express my thoughts. You could, if you will try. That is one of the things that I want you to do, for then you can hear what I say at anytime, and it will not be necessary for you to write.
Yes, it is better to presume what I write, for sometimes, it does you good to read over what I have said, and feel over again the emotions, which you felt at the time of your receiving my messages.
I love you all the time, and you know it. But sometimes it is beneficial to reread my expressions of Love, even though you doubt that they are mine. Let me tell you that you are not to remain in this state of doubt much longer, for I will so indubitably show my presence to you that you will never again doubt that I am with you. Then when you write, you will feel that I am indeed writing as convincingly as if I sat beside you and you could see me. It may happen any night as you sit and write, or when you are lying in bed thinking of me and wondering if I am really with you. So you must be prepared to have anything happen which will show you that I am with you. Yes, I believe that I will be able to do that when you are all alone. So you will hear my voice when you are alone.
No, this is the most satisfactory means of communicating that I know of. You can exchange your thoughts for mine, and can write so much more than I could possibly speak. Yes, I will be able to speak for a little while at a time, but not as I write. No spirit can gather such power as would be required to continue to talk for any length of time. Even Bright Star, who is an adept, could not carry on an extended conversation, as she says.
The power that I now have enables me to manifest myself in several ways, such as the independent voice, materialization and writing. I do not know about the slate writing. I believe that I can do that too. At any rate, I will try to accomplish it sometime. I do not think that I will be able to manifest on the same night in an independent voice, and also materialize. Each manifestation requires great power. Yes, I can knock on the table, but that does not give any special satisfaction. All earth bound spirits can do that. It is the lowest order of manifestation. We of the Higher Spheres do not care to do that, if we can manifest in any other way. I would rather not try it.
I mean that I am stronger physically, spiritually and mentally than White Eagle. I do not know the exact extent of my power, but the spirits with a better knowledge of these things, say that my power is so very unusual that I can do most anything that I may try. Of course, they mean within reasonable limitations. I could not take a mountain and move it, or even a very heavy substance, but I could lift you, and will sometime just to show you how strong I am.
Spiritually, I am now in a Sphere that enables me to know what the Divine Love of God really is, and that in His Divine Love, I have almost complete happiness. I have gotten rid of those things. I now love everybody. I am trying my best to help every soul that I possibly can. No such feelings of dislike, envy, or hatred, have no any place in my heart, for which I thank God.
The condition of all spirits is determined by their goodness and Love. No distinction, on account of what a spirit might have been on Earth is known here. The poorest working human is as of as great importance as the most famous human according to their earthly standing. In fact, more of the poor and humble of Earth, are in the Higher Spheres, than are those who were wealthy and held high positions. This is so, not because there were more of the poor, but because their Spiritual Conditions were better, and they are more susceptible to the influences of the good spirits, who are doing the Father's Work. So you see high standing on Earth is not a thing which determines the condition of the spirit here.
I know a number of spirits who, when on Earth, were prominent in society, and wealthy, but who are now in the lowest Sphere, simply because they did not know anything of God's Love, and wholly failed to observe His Laws and Truths, while on Earth. You will be surprised at the number of friends of yours who were prominent on Earth, and who are not as happy as they were while on Earth. Their desires are very much the same as on Earth, and yet they have no means of gratifying them. Consequently, they are very unhappy.
I think that the sin of suicide is the worst, then the murderer, the drunkard and the prostitute. The last is a person who seems very difficult to Things Spiritual because he, or she, does not realize the enormity of their sin, so much as the suicide or murderer. A prostitute has ruined many. When they at last realize that fact, their sufferings are very great, they are in very low planes, lower than the Earth Planes. They are generally trying to pursue the occupation that they had on Earth, and imagine that they do. I say imagine, because I have no better word to express it. They really believe that there is some kind of happiness that comes to them, from the belief that they have that they can still engage in such things. You would be surprised to see the great number of men and women who occupy this Plane. Some of them who on Earth were not considered such. Prostitution is not a thing of act altogether, but of desire or lust. A man may look on a women and lust after her, and, as Jesus said, he already commits adultery in heart. So, many mortals committed adultery in that way, and the sin arising there from follows them here, and can only be gotten rid of by prayer, and the consequent Forgiveness and Divine Love of God in their hearts. A man or women may get rid of this sin while on Earth, if they repent, and prays God to let His Divine Love come into their soul. When this Divine Love takes possession of a human's soul, all sin is cast out, and is no more remembered against them. This is what is meant by washing away sin.
The blood of Jesus, nor his vicarious atonement, as it is called, ever washes away sin. The only effective thing is the Divine Love of God in the heart. So you see, humans may believe, all that they possibly can that the blood and sufferings of Jesus, and his death on the cross, saves them from sin and its consequence, yet, if they are not possessed of this Divine Love, these sins will remain. They are not saved.
I have written more than I intended on this subject, but as you are so much interested, I thought it best to tell you what I have learned from the Master himself.
I mean by having more powerful mentality, that I have progressed so very much in knowledge and in my will power. I am not yet a wise woman. But in a certain line I have acquired a great deal of knowledge as regards, for instance, the way in which spirits and mortals while in the flesh. I am not any more versed in the science of; what controls the heavenly bodies, or why one star differs from another in glory, or what are God's mysteries, as you may consider them. These matters are being investigated by other and older spirits. But as regards Love, both of God, spirits and mortals, I have learned a great deal. Let me tell you that of all subjects that should interest humans, Love is the Greatest. For Love is the fulfilling of All Law. The human who Knows what Love is, I mean the Real, Genuine Love, both for God, and their fellow mortals, and spirits, has that which is not equaled by Knowledge of anything else in all the Universe.
Jesus has this Knowledge, to a greater extent than any other spirit. Consequently, is the greatest power in all the heavens, or Earth. Those who listen to his teachings, and follow them, will be, when they come over, and even while on Earth, the strongest and happiest of all beings. So do not neglect to learn this Great Knowledge. You are very far in the possession of it. When you shall have had his teachings, and followed them, you will be a powerful and happy spirit when you come over.
I am told by him, (Jesus), that he is forming his own Kingdom in the Spirit World, of those who listen to and follow his teaching, and get this Great Divine Love in their hearts. Their home, or Sphere, will be entirely separate from the other spirits. Will be in the highest heavens, where happiness the most Supreme will be.
So I am trying to become one of his followers, and a subject of his kingdom. He will not let sin of any kind, or inharmony, find a resting peace in that Kingdom. Hence, no human, or spirit, who has not been fully purified can possibly enter into it. He is now forming that Kingdom. When his work is done, and he leaves the Earth Plane, and humankind to themselves, he will go into that Kingdom and remain there, and rule for All Eternity. So strive to become worth of becoming a subject of that Kingdom.
You must stop writing now, as you are tired. Well as you are my soulmate, the only one that I will ever have, or want. I must tell you that I Love you with a Love that can never grow old or less. That when you come over you will realize that, your Helen is a spirit who knows how to Love. She loves you now with all her heart and soul, and you must believe it.
So goodnight my own darling Ned. Your loving, Helen.
January 8th, 1915
I am here, your Grandmother.
Yes, I see that you are desirous of some Spiritual food. I have come to tell you of some Truths of the Spirit Life. You have been reading a book, which is not true, for there are no hells as described in it, where mortals after passing into the Spirit Life have to undergo such sufferings and torments. There are no such places as described in the first part of the book. You need not believe that there are any such places of punishment for the evil spirits. God Loves All His Children too much to have them pass through such experiences as are in that book described. I know what I am telling you. I have descended into the lowest Spheres, and have never yet seen or heard of such hells, or any spirits who are in the condition described. Evil spirits have to suffer for their sins and atone for every evil thought, but not by any such suffering as the writer of that book depicts. I am conscious of the fact that the churches teach of hells somewhat similar to the ones we have referred to, but neither the hells of the churches, nor the hells of that book exist. So do not let the thoughts, which the reading of that book may engender, make you think that there is such a vengeful and cruel God. I know that there is not.
My observations of the condition of the wicked shows me that they must all suffer before they can be relieved from the burden of their sins, and have a place where happiness, even to a smallest degree, is obtained. When they have become Truly penitent, and seek the saving Power and Love of God, they will always find it.
You are not much impressed, I can see, by the statements in the book. I am glad of it.It might tend to make you have an idea of what God, thatis that is wholly erroneous.
My own belief is; that He is God of Love, to even the vilest sinner. When such a sinner turns to Him, and prays for forgiveness and Divine Love,they get them both. Let me tell you further that the Divine Love of God, when It enters into the soul of a human is sufficient to wash away all sins, and make that soul happy and joyful. Not even the most evil human, who is guilty of the greatest sin, need think that they cannot be pardoned, and made happy and brought into Harmony with God.
I am now going to tell you of what a Love the Master has for All Humankind. He is now working for their Redemption, by showing them The Way to the Divine Love of God. The Light that they need, is not one of belief in any ordinance of the church, or creed, or doctrine, but simply that a belief in God's Divine Love. The exercise of the will of a human, accompanied with a desire to obtain that Divine Love, with an earnest prayer to the Father, are all that is necessary to bring True Happiness and Salvation.
He (Jesus) is here now, and says that he is almost ready to write to you. That you must try with all your heart to get more of Gods Divine Love, and become one with him. Then he will be able to write. You will understand just what he intends. So you see that you have a duty to perform with regards to your own self, as well as to what the Master requires you to do.
Yes, the Master is now working to lead all souls to God, and His Divine Love. Some will follow him. The vast majority will not. They will be left to themselves when he stops his work. When that time comes, he will ascend into the Heavens, where his home is. All his followers will go with him and live there for All Eternity.
He will not come again to the Earth Plane, or even to the Higher Planes, where the Moral and intellectual spirits live. They will be left to enjoy the happiness, which their conditions may give them. His Kingdom will be one of Supreme Happiness, and very near the center of God's Divine Love, and will be one that will be entirely to itself. No spirit, who is not of his Kingdom (of soul condition) can possibly enter therein. I do not know just when the time will come for him to leave the Earth Sphere and enter into this Kingdom. When he does, the gates thereto will be closed forever upon all spirits who are not followers of him. Never again will they be opened. He has told me this. I must believe him.So must you. He is now trying to teach humankind the Great Truth, that in order to become partakers of this Great Privilege, they must permit the Divine Love of God to come into their souls, as without it, no one can enter the Kingdom. Soon, the privileges will be taken away. Then will be the separation of the sheep from the goats, as mentioned in the Bible.
No other of the great teachers is teaching the Truth of the New Birth, except Jesus. All are teaching Morality, and in a way, a Love for God. But none teach the absolute entering into the soul of human, this Divine Love, by means of the Holy Ghost. Many of the ancient prophets and teachers of God's Love will be partakers of this Kingdom, as I am told. So will all who receive this Divine Love, whether born and living before the time of Jesus, or subsequently. The Kingdom will be created, not merely by Jesus teachings, but by this Divine Love of God. All who have It will become inhabitants of the Kingdom. Jesus will be the ruler of it,not in the sense that you understand a ruler on Earth to be. He will be the greatest possessor of this Divine Love. Consequently, the most powerful, as well as the most Loving spirit in the whole Kingdom. His rule will be one of peace, Love and ministration. You must try to become a member of this kingdom, or you will not be happy as you might be by doing so.
Well as you are tired, I must stop. Yes, there are many Spheres beyond me. I am striving now to progress to a higher one. So you see there is no limit to what may be obtained.
As I understand that Spheres of his Kingdom will be the one close to the Father's Home. There will be none beyond. I of course do not know. This is what I believe.
Yes, sometime I will tell you more in detail of the conditions and Laws of the Sphere where I am.
Goodnight, your Grandmother. (Ann Rollins)
January 9th, 1915
I am here, Helen.
I am so happy. I am awful glad that you are also. I was with you at the show tonight. You made me so happy when you loved me as you did. I tried to let you hear my voice. I could not. Do not despair of hearing it. I will soon learn the way. Then you will have me quite often. I loved you so much that you could not help feeling my love. When you thought of me so intensely, I was with you, and tried to hug your hands. You shed more tears of Love. Then I almost let myself control you right there. As it was a public place, I restrained my control. You are my darling Ned. You are dearer to me than ever. So let me have all your Love, and I will be very happy.
I was with you today when Dr. Stone was with you. I heard what was said. I saw that he was very much impressed with your talk to him about the Love of God flowing into the heart. So I believe that if you continue to tell him of this Love, he will soon see the True Way that it must be obtained, and will strive to get it. He is a naturally Spiritual man, and wants to have this Love in his soul.
I know just what he thinks about this Love Principle. While he is partly right, yet he does not grasp the True Principle of that Divine Love. He is depending upon a Love that human can create, by what he calls right thinking and action. This is not True. Human, cannot of themselves, create this Divine Love. They can let It (the Divine Love) come into their heart, and grow. Thereby become more possessed with It. It will not come of their own creation. His (Dr. Stone's) heart is not in such a condition, that this Divine Love will spring up spontaneously. Nor can he, by his mere effort to create It, or cause its appearance. He can obtain it only from a Higher Source. That Source is his Heavenly Father. No human is so good that this Divine Love can emanate from them, anymore than Life can arise of his own volition or efforts. What is the Love Principle, as it is called, is not the Natural Love of a human for God, or for human, but the Divine Love that comes into the heart of a human from the Father, in answer to prayer. I do not know if I have made myself very clear, but you know what I mean, and can explain better than can I.
Yes, I am very strong tonight. You are in very good condition too, but you must not write too much. You must conserve your strength, for I am going to draw on it tomorrow night, if conditions are favorable.
She is happy as I told you. You are not so much worried, and I am thankful for it. Yes, he has to a great extent. He sees that only this Divine Love can make him happy, and save him from his sins. So you see you have done some good on Earth, as well as among spirits.
As to Judge Syrick, I will try to have his soulmate come and write him. Wait a little while until I find her. She is here.
(Written by Frank's soulmate)
Dear Frank, I am here, and through the kindness of Mrs. Padgett, I have the opportunity to write you, and tell you that you are the dearest person to me in all the World. You do not yet fully appreciate my Love for you, but as you come more in rapport with me, you will feel my presence and love to a greater and larger extent. I am not only your soulmate, but your guardian angel. When you least think of me, I am with you, trying to direct your thoughts and actions towards those things, which will make you happier and more at peace with your troubles in Life. So do not forget, that wherever you may be, and whatever your thoughts may dwell upon, I am with you, and know what you are thinking of. I want you to think and believe that in all the Earth, or Spirit Land either, there is no one who Loves you with such a pure and fervent Love as I do, my own darling Frank. Oh, how I wish that I could communicate to you in this way every night, and tell you of what happiness I have in being with you, and feeling at times that you do really Love me, in your own somewhat divided heart. But thank God the time will come when I will have your whole Love for myself. No one else will share it with me to the smallest extent.
My dear, only believe that I am your soulmate. I am waiting for you to come over, and share with me the happiness and delight which my home here gives me. No spirit can Love its soulmate more than I do you. No mortal can Love so much. Be my own True sweetheart, and even though you do not have the assurance that I am with you as I say. Yet I am. Nothing in all the World can keep me from you. So, if you will only believe in me, and in my love, you will realize that I am with you. You will feel my love and my presence, even though your physical senses may not be able to tell you anything. But the sense of two souls, which are decreed by Our Father to be one, will tell you, at times, that I am one and you are the other, and that the two will, through All Eternity, become and remain one in Love and happiness. So you see, that even though we cannot exchange our Love so very often in words, yet in our feelings and sensations we may know that our Love for each other is existing, and burning with a brightness that nothing can extinguish. Not even your thoughts that I am a mere myth and not your own True Loving soulmate. Be only closer to me in your thoughts. You will realize that I am your Rose, as I once told you. You sometimes doubt that you saw me, and felt my kiss your forehead, and that I have no real existence. I tell you with all my soul's Love, that it was I that kissed you, and told you that I was your soulmate. Oh my darling one, do not doubt me again if you value my happiness.
Let my Love for you; keep your thoughts in the way of Things Spiritual. I can see that you are inclined to the Higher Things of the Spirit Life. If you desire to come to me and live with me when you come over, seek the Real Love of our Father (the Divine Love), for in that, you will find everything that will make your soul develop. Until, when you come to me I will meet you and take you to my home, where you will find that I have prepared a home for you so beautiful, that you will wonder how I could have Loved you so much, and thought so much about your happiness. You are the only one for me to think of in this way. When you stop for a moment, and think of what love means, you will see that I could not do otherwise than try to make you happy.
There is one other thing that I want to tell you. That is; that you must have no fear of what is called death, because, it is not death, but an entrance into Life. When you come over, I will be right at your bedside. As your spirit passes from your body, I will take you in my arms and carry you to the home, which I have prepared for you.
Of course, this means, if you have developed your soul to such an extent as will permit you to enter my home. Even if you have not, I will be with you as the soul leaves the body, and fold you in my arms, and say such words of burning Love, that you will not be afraid, or want to be anywhere else than with me. So you see, in Life, or death, or after death, I will be with you. My love will envelope you in the great happiness, which I have, and want you to have.
As I have already taken up more of Mr. Padgett's time and strength than I intended, I must stop. In doing so, say with all my heart and soul, I Love you, and will love you through All Eternity, my own dear Frank.
Helen. (Writes some more)
Well, don't you think that she loves him? She is a soulmate after my own heart. I think that he ought to be very happy to know that he has such Love as that. ? No, not so great as mine. I will Love you with all my heart too.
I am somewhat tired now, and must stop. So goodnight, my own darling Ned. Your own True Helen.

I am here, your father.
I came to tell you that you are a very loving man, and that you will do some good, both in the Earth, and in the Spirit World. I feel that I must tell you this, for I see that your soul is developing very rapidly, and as the more of God's Divine Love you get, the more power for doing good you will have. Only pray as you are doing. You will become more happy yourself, and make others happy.
The message that you have just received will make the Judge feel very happy. It will cause him to think more of Things Spiritual, as I believe.
You should not write more tonight as you are tired.
So with all my Love, and many wishes for your happiness and prosperity, I am, your loving father, John H. Padgett.

I am here, Jesus.
You are my friend and disciple. You are in me, and I am in thee, and we are in the Father. You are in me for All Eternity.
My Kingdom is not of this World (the Earth). You are not of this World. You are in me, as I told my disciples of old. Only believe me and keep my commandments. I will Love you to the end. The Father will Love you.
I mean that you must love all humankind, and try to show them the way to God's Divine Love.
I mean; that I am my Father's Son of Truth and Righteousness. As such, you must pray the Father, in my name, not because I am Jesus, but because I represent all the Truth and Love of my Father.
Yes. That is the Only Way, in which humans can come to the Father, and no other. When my Kingdom is completed, only those who have become One with the Father will become a part of it.
Yes, she told you the Truth. My Kingdom will be composed only of those who believe in my teachings, and who have received the Holy Ghost (Divine Love). So do not doubt more. You, I have selected. You will be my True disciple and messenger of Truth. You have my help, and Love, to the fullest. No human can take it from you. In All Eternity, you will be with me. God answers your prayers because you have Faith (in Him), and are my own disciple. So continue to pray. He will hear you and answer your prayers.
No, only believe and trust Him. He will never forsake you, or let you want. You must Love God with all your heart, soul, and mind, and your neighbor as yourself.
This is the Great Commandment. So observe this, and you will be happy and free.
Let your prayers become more fervent, and your Faith more fully developed. I will help you to know more of your Father's Love. You will soon become a True Follower of me. You must seek, and you will know. Wait until I give my messages. Then you will know the Truth.
Yes, I am the vine and you are the branch. So believe.
What you have written is my thoughts. You did not think any of these thoughts.
So goodnight. May God Bless you, as I do now. Jesus.

I am here, George W. Harvey.
I lived in Washington, and kept a restaurant on Pennsylvania Avenue and Tenth Street. I am in the Spirit World in the Earth Plane, and in hell also. I am not happy. I am in darkness and despair.
(Question unknown, but answer is as follows)
Yes, I did, but that did not keep me from hell. The priests mislead me. They are here too, damn them. Can you help me any, if you can do so? Yes, I remember Taggart. He is here too, and cannot help himself. I see him sometimes. He tells that he is in a condition of suffering too. No, but he is not in condition to help me, even if I do see him. You must help me if you can. I do not know, but I want help from someone. I know, they say so, but I do not believe them, for they cannot help themselves. No, I do not know them. I will see him at once, and ask him. Tell him that I want to know.
So goodnight, your friend, George W. Harvey.
January 12th, 1915
I am here, Helen.
You must not write to these spirits as we have told you. Yes he said that he knew you on earth and wanted you to help him. I see that he has gone to seek Mr. Taggart. I do not think that he will be much helped. Yes, you may be right. You certainly have a way of accomplishing things. I never thought of that. Well, I will go and see if I can find them, and make them come here, and write you what I hear.
They are here:
Mr. Taggart tells Mr. Harvey that you told him that the Way to get out of this condition of darkness and unhappiness is to pray to God, for His Divine Love to enter into their hearts, and believe that it will. That if he will only be willing to have it come into his heart, it will. But that he has not yet been able to believe. But Mr. Harvey says, that when he was on Earth, he was a strict Catholic. That he often prayed something like that, and attended to his duties. Even when he made his will, he left some money for the priests to pray him out of purgatory. But all their prayers together have not helped him. He does not believe that there is any God, to whom a person can pray, and from whom he can get relief. So that when you talked that way to Taggart, you were merely trying to mislead him as the priests did him. Mr. Taggart says; George you are wrong there, for our friend does not merely say pray, but he prays with us, and for us, and seems to believe with all his heart that there is a God, and that He will answer prayer. So I am not so certain that there is not a God, and one who answers prayers. I am going to try to pray and believe myself. I advise you to do likewise.
Mr. Harvey says: Taggart it is all nonsense. If that is the only way we can get out of this condition, we never will be any better than we now are. So you need not tell me of God and prayer.
Mr. Taggart says:
George, I have seen the effect of this prayer on some spirits. I know that they have been made more beautiful and happy. Even Mackay is commencing to say that he sees Light ahead, and has felt some strange influences come into his heart as he said a prayer, which he promised our friend to say. Now what is the use in your being pig headed and say that there is no God, when you do not know anything about it. I tell you though, there must be something in this belief, or I would not see so many happy spirits around us. Be a man who can keep his mind open to what he sees, and the reasons therefore may come to you. Let us not become hardheaded in this matter. As you were so easy to believe on Earth, what your priests told you about purgatory, the hells, and the necessity for you to pay for prayers to help you out of purgatory, why can't you try to believe a little when the same thing is told you, without your having to pay for it? I am going to try my best to believe. If you know what is best for you, you will follow suit.
Mr. Harvey says:
Taggart, what is the use of being fooled twice? Once is enough for me. Priests are here with me, and suffering more than I am. When I ask them why do not, they pray themselves out of purgatory, they say, "To hell with prayer." Now how am I to believe anything that is told me about prayer, or God?
Mr. Taggart says:
George, let your priests, their sufferings, and their cursings pass out of your mind. Listen to me for a moment. When I came over, I was in great darkness and despair, and believed that there was no possible help for me, and that I must remain in the condition of darkness that I found myself in. But one day, I was called to meet our friend (Mr. Padgett) by his father. When I came where he was, I found that Mackay was there also. Then we exchanged greetings, and wished each other happiness. I found that there was no happiness for me. I told our friend that I was anything but happy. He said believe in God's Love, and you will soon be. I said; who is God and what is His Love? Then he explained to Mackay what that Love is. I heard it all. Then I tackled him and told him that God was a myth, and prayer was nothing but the wish of a man, and went no higher than his mind.
He would not agree with me. We had an argument right then and there. I tell you that while he did not convince me that there was a God, or any efficacy in prayer, yet it made me think and wonder if I could be wrong, and he right. Before I left him, not only Mackay, but myself, promised that we would try an experiment in the nature of prayer. We have been doing it many times since. I tell you, that while I am not yet convinced that there is a God, or that prayer to Him will take us out of our awful conditions of suffering and darkness, yet I have felt many strange sensations, and at times, some little feeling of happiness, which I had never felt before. So you can see, I would be a fool not to try and get this relief, if I possibly can. And I want to tell you George, that if you are willing to make the effort with us we will be glad to have you come. Of course, you need not believe if you do not want to, but just come and join with us in our experiment. You will soon realize that there is something operating that you cannot account for. Mackay is now feeling very much happier he says. I believe that he will soon believe in this God, and His Love, that our friend told us about. At any rate, he is commencing to improve in his appearance. I attribute it to trying the experiment I told you of. So what is the use in holding back and saying that there is no God and no love that can get you out of your condition, of which you complain so much, when by the exercise of a little reason and will, you may be on the right track to salvation. Of course, I do not know just what this may lead to, but I have determined to follow it to a conclusion. You will be a big fool if you do not go with me.
Mr. Harvey said:
Taggart, you were a pretty levelheaded man when on Earth, and required to have things proved to you, and were really a stubborn man, as I know. What you say impresses me. But you will have to show me what you mean by this experiment. You have not told me what you mean. Of course, until you do, I cannot follow you.
Mr. Taggart says:
George, it is a very simple thing. Mackay and I told our friend that we did not believe in God, or in His Love, or in any saviour. He said; you need not, to do what I want you to try. He said, while there is a God, and His Love, which is the only thing that can save you from sin and make you happy humans, yet that God does not force that Love on you, or make you believe in Him. Only when you are willing to receive that Love, of your own volition, will it come to you. So you see, he said it all depends upon your own will, whether you will have that Love, and the happiness which flows from it, or not. If you will only will that, you may believe in God if there be one. That you may receive that Love if such there be. Then if you will, will this, and say to God, if there be one, that you will that this Love shall come into your heart, and that this belief shall come into your mind, and repeat this with all earnestness and will, you will find that after a little while, this belief will come to you. This love will come into your heart. So Mackay and I are desiring to try anything to get out of our condition, and believing that our friend would not intentionally deceive us, promised to say these things. In that way, pray to a God that we did not believe in. We have continued to repeat these thoughts ever since. I must confess to you that some strange change, or sensation, has come to me. What it is, I do not just know. But it is there. I am determined to continue in this qualified prayer, until I know one way, or the other, what the result will be. So you see, George, if it does no good, it can do no harm. If you have desire enough to get out of your condition, you will try the experiment.
Mr. Harvey says:
Well Taggart, there may be something in what you say. I am willing to go with you. For as you say, if it does no good, it can do no harm. So let me hear again, what I am to say. I will commence.
Then Mr. Taggart repeated the prayer and they left.
You are too wonderful in your way of getting the attention of spirits who are in darkness to turn their thoughts to things that may help them. I am so glad that you are helping these spirits, even though you did let Mr. Harvey write. Who knows, maybe such interferences are intended for some good purposes.
So my darling, I Love you with all my heart and soul, and must stop writing. Yes, I will, and will try to talk to him sometime when the proper occasion comes.
So goodnight, my own darling Ned, Helen.
January 13th, 1915
I am here, Jesus.
Yes, I am that Jesus. You should not doubt, as I have told you before that I am.
They (the lower spirits)are in a condition, which prevents them from seeing that I am the True Jesus. They will all be lost, unless in some way they get an (Spiritual) Awakening, to the fact that only through me can they obtain the Divine Love of the Father, which will enable them to enter His kingdom. I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life, as I long ago said. They will be, forever shut out of His Kingdom, and will live in the Spirit Land without this Divine Love to comfort and make them happy. I do not mean to say that they will all suffer eternal punishment, for they will not. The Father Loves them all! But their state, will be one of only comparative happiness. They will not have within them that Divine Love of the Father, which is necessary to make them Supremely Happy.
You will know, in proper time, all these things, which make for the (Supreme) Happiness of my followers. You must wait until I am ready to explain these matters to you.
Yes, I know. You are helping the darkened spirits, and some mortals. You must not let every spirit who seeks your help, cause you to give your strength to them, in the way of writing, for as your wife has told you, the Laws of Communication must be obeyed, or you will suffer, in your power to receive these messages.
Yes, very much. You have great Faith. I am somewhat surprised at it myself. But you have it. God hears, and answers, your prayers. You must continue to pray and believe. You must not doubt that I am with you and wrote to you, and neither must you doubt that I can help you in every time and heed.
Yes, you will receive that inflowing of the Holy Spirit, as they did, even while you are on Earth, and will be able to know that God is your Father, to the extent that they knew. Only you must pray more, and believe more. You will not only receive that, but you will also receive power to convince humans of my teachings, and lead them to my Father's Divine Love, and also to show that you possess this Divine Love, by being able to heal the sick by merely praying for them.
This I tell you now, because you will soon commence to take my messages. You must have these powers and Faith.
Yes, I hear your prayers to the Father. I try to let you feel my Love. You do sometimes. But you must not let your prayers come to me as God. I am only your friend and brother. Yes, I know, but these sayings I did not say at all. I merely claimed to be my Father's son and messenger. I did not claim to be God.
Yes, I said that my Father sent me. That is True. I did live before I came to Earth with my Father in the Heavens. So did you!
I meant that in the Kingdom of God, there are homes. That I would go and prepare a place where my followers should have a home with me, separate from the homes of the spirits who are not believers in, or followers of, me. That my Kingdom, was to be a separate Kingdom, from the other parts of the Spirit Lands, and that those who wanted to live with me would have to get this Divine Love of God in their hearts to do so. My Kingdom is one where Divine Love is Supreme, and where it is manifested in the purest and highest degree. I have not seen God, in the sense that I have seen you, but that in the sense that my Divine Love is so very abundant, and so Truly His Divine Love, that He appears to my soul's eyes, just as plainly as you appear to my natural eyes.
Many of my sayings were merely symbolical, and not intended to be taken literally. My Father cannot be seen by anyone of His Children. No human has ever seen Him. He is not of form, or substance, that can be seen. You are now very near where you will see Him with your soul's eyes, as I did. When you do, then you will be able to know that His Divine Love is in your heart to its fullest. Why you are so greatly blessed with this Divine Love and Faith, I really do not know, even though I do know so much of His Truth and Love.I see that you have great possibilities of Faith and Divine Love, which will make you a most wonderful human doing His Work of saving souls for His Kingdom.
Well, I can readily see how you may doubt, but as I know, you must believe me, for I am telling you the Truth. It will leave you as the Divine Love flows in. You will then be able to realize that you are free indeed. They will not after the time appointed shall end. No more will the opportunity come. No more will God give His Divine Love and Grace to humans or spirits (of humans). They will Love only with the Natural Love that belongs to them as mortals. They will never receive this Great Love, which comes by the operation of the Holy Spirit. They will continue to live forever, but their happiness will not be of the kind that my followers will have. They will not be contented in that happiness. They will forever long for something that they can never get.
I will not let you write more tonight, as you are now in a condition of more happiness. Well, I Love you with a Love that will never end, and that will keep you in all your troubles and worries free from everything that tends to make you doubt God's Divine Love, or my teachings.
So with this Divine Love, I now bless you, and pray that God's Divine Love may come into your heart more abundantly.
Jesus.
January 15th, 1915
I am here, Your Grandmother.
The Kingdom of Jesus will be one where only those who believe in his teachings of Truth (in these messages), and have received the Holy Ghost (Divine Love) in their souls, will live. At sometime, Known only to God, the entrance to this Kingdom will be closed. All, who have not qualified themselves, or rather who have not striven to heed and obey these Truths, and have not received this Divine Love, will not be permitted to enter this Kingdom. Those who remain outside, will have the Love and Care of God, necessary to make them comparatively happy, but will not have that Supreme Love, which they can all now get, if they will seek and believe.
That all spirits shall enjoy this Supreme Love, is not necessary to the Harmony of God's Universe. Why should He continue to hold open the entrance to this Kingdom of Supreme Love, when humans will not try to obtain it? Well, as to those who are born after the Kingdom is shut forever, He will not let enter, because they are not included in His Plan of Salvation, to this Supreme and Celestial Heaven. They will have the other happiness that I speak of, but not that which those in Jesus' Kingdom will enjoy.
No, it is not. He did not intend that his Kingdom, of which we speak, should remain open through All Eternity for spirits to enter and live in. They who come after have no claim on God for such Supreme opportunities. He is not doing an injustice by keeping them from entering it. He has prepared a place, or places, where they will be able to find comparative happiness, and will only be a little lower than the Angels of God, who are, and will be, the Redeemed, through the teachings of Jesus, and who become part of His (Gods) Kingdom.
I know that your friend and medium Mr. Colburn may think that this is not just right or just. But where there is no right to demand the Grace of God, and when He bestows that Grace in such a way as to make All His Children comparatively happy. Where is the injustice in giving to a certain few, who seek the True Way, and find it, the Supreme Condition of Happiness, which His Divine Love to the fullest gives.
He is not a God of justice according to human understanding, but according to His Own Ideas of what human is justly entitled to. He will not turn away one soul who may seek this Divine Love in the fullest, but will enter into the heart of everyone who asks Him to. When humans fail to ask, why should He, through All Eternity, keep open the Gate to His Place of Supreme Happiness, or in other words, His Divine Sphere, set apart for those who follow Jesus, and His Truths? I know that some people might say that God had no right to provide this Special Kingdom for any of His Children. In doing so He showed partiality.He has the right to show this partiality, when the very reason for its existence, is the failure of some of His Children to partake, and accept, what He freely offers to all.
Well, as to that, I am not so qualified to answer. But it seems to me, that they who come after the Gates to the Kingdom are closed, have no right to expect that they are entitled to enter, for they are not born to have this Privilege. The only privilege that He can offer them, is that of His Spirit World, where they will be free from sin and unhappiness. They will all be His Children, but not all His Divine Children. Those who have entered this Kingdom, of which I speak, will take on the Divine Nature of the Father. While those who do not, will remain His Spiritual Children, with the right to a Life through All Eternity, but not to all the Attributes, which the Divine Nature confers.
This is a subject, which Jesus will instruct you in, when he comes to write his messages. You had better wait until then, for you will be better able to understand after you hear his explanation.
No, after the gates are closed, the Holy Ghost or Spirit will return to God, and dwell in the Kingdom. Human's souls will then receive God's Love through the messengers (His Spirit), which He will use for that purpose. But the Divine Part of His Love, will not be conveyed. Only the (Natural) Love, which God, as a Spirit has for His Children, as spirits (of humans). I suppose that this is hard for you to understand. As I say, wait until Jesus writes, and you will know all.
No, human is not divine, in the sense that God is Divine. For they are Created in the image.That is the soul only, that makes them like their Father, but not that Divinity, which divides, or differentiates, the God Essence, from the spirit essences. Only God is Divine in this sense. Only those born of human can ever obtain that Divine Essence, who become members of the Kingdom that I speak of.
"Divine" is a word used in a very comprehensive sense. Includes in the minds, or thoughts, of many persons, everything that seems to be above the mortal existence, or powers of human. But it is not a True Conception of the meaning of the word. Only that is Divine, which is of the True Essence of God in His Nature, which human does not have, or which is not a part of them. In this sense, no human is divine. Neither have they any of this divinity in them. Only God is Divine! Human cannot possibly get this Divine Essence, except in The Way that Jesus has taught. Only the Holy Ghost conveys to the soul of human, this Divine Essence of God! When the mission of this Messenger, (the Holy Spirit) ceases, human will no longer receive this Divine Essence.
So tell Mr. Colburn that he must not believe, that through All Eternity, human will have the Privilege of getting this Divine Essence of the Father. Tell him to seek It now, while It may be obtained. When he has it, neither all the powers, nor forces of Earth, or Spirit World, can take it from him.
I am very much interested in him. He is a human of deep thought, and is seeking the Truth in all earnestness. I hope that he will let his thoughts turn in the direction that will bring to his mind, and consciousness, the Real and True Things of His Father. He is not very dogmatic, or difficult to grasp the Truth, if it presents itself in a reasonable way. He must not let his preconceived ideas, even if they are based on what the Bible may seem to teach him, keep him from embracing the True Ideas of human's relationship to God, and human's destiny. So give him my Love. Tell him to seek, and he will find, even though he may at times be shocked at some propositions that may be placed before him, for I intend to tell him of what I know about these matters, whenever I have the opportunity.
I have written much longer than I intended, I must stop. So goodnight my dear grandson, your Loving grandmother, Ann Rollins.
January 20th, 1915
I am here, your old friend G. R.
Yes, it is I. I am glad to be able to write to you again. I told your wife that I desired to write and tell you of my progress in spiritual matters. As you are kind enough to give me the opportunity, I will try to tell you how my eyes were opened to the Things of the Spirit, and my heart to the Divine Love of God.
Well, as you know, when I first commenced to write to you, I did not exactly believe in a God, or Jesus, or his teachings, except as they related to the moral condition of humans. When you first commenced to talk to me about these Spiritual Things, I thought that you were merely telling me the things that you had learned in your church, or Sunday school, and that they were only intended for men and women of no capacity to think for themselves, and suited only to receive what the preachers might tell them. So, you see, I was not in a very receptive condition of mind to enable me to believe that what you told me had any foundation in fact, or in Truth. Jesus, to me, was just the same as any other human who had received large conceptions of the Truth, but he was only a mere human, in the sense that what he attempted to teach he had learned by study and meditation, or through some worldly source that I did not know of. At any rate, I believed that his teachings were not the result of inspiration, or derived from a source any different from what humankind received other information, as to things of nature, or of spirit. Well, as you continued to tell me that I was mistaken, and that there is a Source from which all-good flows, other than the mere mind, or conscience, of human. I began to think about the matter. When I looked around me and saw that your mother and wife, who claimed that they had received this Divine Love of God, which you insisted was waiting for me to obtain, were so beautiful and happy, while I, and my folks, were not very beautiful, and not at all happy, I began to inquire the cause. When you told me that their, I mean your mother's and wife's, condition was due to this Divine Love of God, I asked them to tell me about the Nature of this Divine Love, and the way in which they obtained It. Your mother, bless her soul, took great pains to instruct me in these things.
When I learned that prayer was the only way to this Divine Love, and saw you praying for me with all your heart, and in great earnestness, I commenced to pray also. I must confess that my prayers were not accompanied with much Faith. I continued to pray. Every night when you prayed for me, and for the many others, who were with you praying, I tried to exercise all the Faith possible and prayed for more Faith. This continued for some time. One day, your grandmother, who is a most wonderful spirit in goodness and beauty, came to me and said that she was your grandmother and was very much interested in me, on your account, as well as on my own, and commenced to unfold to me the Great Efficacy of Prayer. She assured me that if I would only try to believe, and pray to God to help me believe, He would answer my prayers. I would soon find that with my earnest efforts, Faith would come to me. With Faith, would come this Divine Love into my heart. With this Divine Love, would come happiness and joy.
So I listened to her, and tried to believe that what she told me must be True, and that she was interested in me, and desired only my happiness. I continued to pray, as I said. One day, after I had received some considerable Faith, I met Jesus. He told me of the Wonderful Things that his Father had prepared for me, if I would only believe, and ask Him to give them to me. Jesus was so very beautiful and loving, that I could not resist the influence, which came over me. Then my Faith increased. I prayed with all my heart and soul.
At last, Light came to me. With it, such an inflowing of Divine Love as I never dreamed could exist, either in the Earth, or in the Spirit World, but it came to me. I felt as if I were a new spirit. Such happiness came as I never experienced before. Then that dear mother of yours came and rejoiced with me. Also your beautiful wife, who had tried so hard to induce me to seek for this Divine Love.
Oh, Padgett, I tell you that in all the wide Universe of God, there is nothing to compare to this Divine Love of the Father. Let me say, that in all my life when only my intellect ruled me, there was nothing to compare with that, which came to me with this inflowing of the Divine Love.
I am now in the Third Sphere with many beautiful and happy spirits. Your mother and wife are higher up, and are so beautiful and good, that when I am in their company I feel that I will become a much happier man if I will try to follow them. Your father has progressed too. So has Professor Salyards.
Well, my soul is one now that is filled with this Divine Love. My mind is elevated in its thoughts, and not inclined to think of those things that are merely intellectual. I tell you that while knowledge of all God's Laws, and Nature's apparent mysteries is desirable, yet a Knowledge of this Divine Love of God is far and above compare, and not only more necessary, but more desirable. I would not give the feelings that come to me, from the possession of this Divine Love, for all the sensations of delight that might arise from the discovery of the most stupendous and important Law of the workings of Nature.
Let this Divine Love come first. Then the other acquirements will only help to show the Spirit that God is, is a God of Wisdom and Power, as well as of Love. As you have read, "Love is the fulfilling of the Law", nothing else is. The human who has all the knowledge and wisdom, without this Divine Love, is poor indeed.
Jesus is the most wonderful of all the spirits, in both Love and the Knowledge of the Father's Attributes. He is the greatest, and knows that the Father's Plans to Save and Redeem Humankind, are as he teaches. So you must listen to him and believe.
I am going to try to learn more of his teachings. When I do, you shall know what I learn. Jesus appears to me the one altogether lovely. He has no competitor. No one who sees him, if they have any of this Divine Love in their soul, can fail to know that he is the True Jesus of the Bible, and the most perfect son of his Father. I realized this, only after this Divine Love came to me. It seems that spirits who have not this Divine Love, do not realize who Jesus is, or how wonderful and glorious he is. This may seem strange to you, but it is a fact. Only when the spirit has a (Spiritual) Awakening of his soul's Love for God, does Jesus appear as their great brother and teacher of this Great Love of the Father.
You must not let the things of the material Life lead you to think that you must wait until you come to the Spirit World to get this Great Love. I tell you that the human whose soul is opened to the inflowing of this Divine Love, while on earth, is a much more fortunate human, than they who waits until their Earthly Life ends. If I had only become conscious of this Divine Love when on Earth, I would have been saved many hours of suffering and unhappiness after I became a spirit. My own experience is so True, to what so many undergo, and will undergo, that if I could proclaim to every human on Earth, the necessity of becoming possessed of this Divine Love while on Earth, I would do so with all my might and strength.
I can tell you of my experience in passing over. I do not think it best to do so tonight, as it would take too long and require more strength than you have tonight. Sometime soon, I will do so in detail. I am so glad that I have been Redeemed by this Great Love, the teachings of Jesus, and the help of your spirit relatives, and also, by the help of your prayers, that I cannot express the extent of my gladness. Nothing in all heaven, or Earth, can compare with the feelings of joy that come to a soul when it realizes that it is At-One with the Father in Divine Love and power. Yes, they (old friends of Padgett in Spirit World) know, and are with you every night as you pray. They do not seem to quite understand though, that you can help them in any way. Still they, in a manner, feel some peculiar sensation as you pray, and the others pray with you. Do not stop praying for them.
I tell you that you are a wonderfully blessed human in having such a loving Christian mother and grandmother to pray with and watch over you all your Life. If all humans had Christian parents to teach and show them the Way to this Divine Love of God, as they grow from childhood to Humanhood, many a time of suffering and unhappiness would be avoided. Many a spirit would come into this Life with many less sins to atone for.
Your old friend, G. R. (Albert Riddle)

I am here, Helen.
Well, sweetheart, as Dr. Stone wants so much to hear from his soulmate Mary, and she is here, and is so very anxious to write him, I will tell you what she says, as follows:
She wants Leslie to know that he is so very dear to her, that he must not let his thoughts of Love wander from her to any other person either on Earth, or in the Spirit Land. Then she has Loved him so long. Only recently has she had the opportunity to let him know, in a way that he could understand, that she feels as if she must just let her whole heart burst upon him with its great fountain of Love for him.
She is not able to express to him the extent, or intensity, of her Love, but she does love him to the full limit of her capacity. When he lies down at night, or when he awakens in the morning, she is with him, trying to flood his soul with her love and happiness.
She will not be content to ever have him think that her Love is not his, for it is, to its full. Tell him that he must believe her. That she is with him nearly all the time, trying to help him and make him feel her presence. She is not so very far away that she cannot know at all times, what his feelings are, and when he gets lonely and wants her help. He must try, and come in rapport with her, even when he is alone in his room and thinks that no one is with him. She is his own now and will be through All Eternity.
Only Love like hers can last when disappointments and troubles come. When they do come, then her Love grows stronger and sweeter. He will feel it more as he feels the need of it. She is not now trying to make him believe that she is only waiting for him to come over, in order that he may know that she Loves him with all her heart and soul. She loves him in that way while he is on Earth, beset by all the cares that come to him. He must Love her more and more each day. He will find that his happiness will increase as this Love grows.
Tell him, that she is in the Fifth Sphere, and is preparing a home for him, which will be so bountiful, that he will be more surprised, than he will be at the beauties of the Spirit Plane where she is. Her home, in addition to having the beauties that are in that Plane, will have her Love permeating it.
She has another Love, which not only helps her Love for him to become more intense and pure, but which draws her nearer to the Father of Love. This is the Greatest of all Loves. She wants him to let his heart become filled with it also. It is his, if he will only seek for it, and believe that the Father is ready to give it to him, for he is not only ready but anxious. Tell my dear Leslie to pray to God, and ask that this Divine Love may be given to him and fill his soul. If he does, he will receive It. When he does, he will not only Love God Supremely, but will Love his True Soulmate, with a purer and sweeter Love than he can conceive of. When he does that, he will find that his happiness will be so great and joyful that the little cares and troubles of his Earthly Life, will not be able to mar that happiness, or make him wish for any other kind. I am his and he is mine. When he realizes that, he will know what "soulmate" means. We are not for each other for a time only, but for All Eternity. Even Eternity will not be too long for the enjoyment of our mutual Love.
Oh, he is my own True Soulmate. I am so happy in that knowledge, that my cup of joy seems to be full and running over. Let him think of me as being close by his side all the time, sharing his joys, and sympathizing with him in all his sorrows. He will feel that he is not alone. Tell him also to try and become a True Lover of God, and the Truths of the teachings of His son, Jesus of Nazareth, our brother and helper. I am a firm believer in these things, and know that they are True. I want my dear soulmate to believe with me, for in that belief is found the happiness, which I tell him of.
I must stop now, so say goodbye. Rest in the belief that no matter what troubles or cares may come, whether you Love me all the time or not, I will Love you now, and always, with my whole heart and soul, and will wait with all the patience possible for your coming. So, Leslie dear, goodbye.
Mrs. Helen Padgett further writes: Well, she Loves him with a very pure and steadfast love, not so demonstrative as Rose's Love for the Judge (Judge Syrick), but so deep and pure. She is a lovely spirit, one who is filled with the Divine Love of her Heavenly Father, and one who is worthy of all the Love that any man can give her. I am very fond of her, and see a great deal of her. She is so gentle, Loving and tender, and is so loved by many spirits to whom she has administered consolation and help.
Helen.
January 24th, 1915
I am here, Jesus.
You are now in condition. I will give you a short message.
When I was on Earth, I was not worshiped as God, but was considered merely as the son of God, in the sense that in me were imposed the Truths of my Father, and many of His Wonderful and Mysterious powers. I did not proclaim myself to be God! Neither did I permit any of my disciples to believe that I was God. Only that I was His Beloved Son, sent to proclaim to humankind, His Truths, and show them The Way to the Divine Love of the Father. I was not different from other humans, except, that I possessed to a degree, this Divine Love of God, which made me free from sin, and prevented the evils that formed a part of the nature of humans, from becoming a part of my nature. No human who believes that I am God has a Knowledge of the Truth, or is obeying the Commandments of God by worshiping me. Such worshipers are blaspheming, and are doing the Cause of God, and my teachings great injury. Many a human would have become a True Believer in, and worshiper of, The Father, and follower of my teachings, had not this blasphemous dogma been interpolated into the Bible. It was not with my authority, or in consequence of my teachings, that such a very injurious doctrine was promulgated, or believed in.
I am only a son of my Father, as you are. While I was always free from sin and error, as regards the True Conception of my Father's True Relationship to humankind, yet you are His son also. If you will seek earnestly, and pray to the Father with Faith, you may become as free from sin and error as I was then, and am now.
The Father is Himself, Alone. There is no other God besides Him. No other God to be worshiped. I am His teacher of Truth. I am the Way, the Truth and the Life, because in me are those Qualities of Good and Knowledge, which fit me to show The Way, and lead humans to Eternal Life in The Father. To teach them that God has prepared a Kingdom, in which they may live Forever, if they so desire. But not withstanding my teachings, humans, and those who have assumed high places in what is called the Christian Church, impose doctrines, so at variance with the Truth, that, in these latter days, many humans, in the exercise of an enlightened freedom, and of reason, have become infidels. Turned away from God, and His Love.Have thought, and taught, that human, them self, is sufficient for their own salvation.
The time has come when these humans must be taught to know, that while the teachings of these professed authorities on the Truths of God (the dogmatic churches) are all wrong, they, these same humans, are in error when they refuse to believe in God, and my teachings. What my teachings are, I know, it is difficult to understand, from the writings of the New Testament. Many things therein contained, I never said. Many things that I did say are not written therein. I am now going to give to the World, the Truths, as I taught them when on Earth, and many that I never disclosed to my disciples, or inspired others to write.
No human can come to the Father's Divine Love, except they be Born Again. This is the Great and Fundamental Truth, which humans must learn and believe. For without this New Birth, humans cannot partake of the Divine Essence of God's Love, which, when possessed by a human, makes them At-One with the Father. This Divine Love comes to human by the workings of the Holy Spirit, causing this Divine Love to flow into the heart and soul of human, and filling it, so that all sin and error must be eradicated.
I am not going to tell you tonight just how this working of the Holy Spirit operates. But, I say, if a human will pray to the Father, and believe, and earnestly ask that this Divine Love be given them, they will receive It. When It comes into their soul, they will realize it.
Let not humans think, that by any effort of their own, they can come into this Union with The Father. Because they cannot. No river can rise higher than its source! No human, who has only the Natural Love, and filled with error can of their own powers, cause that Natural Love to partake of the Divine, or their nature to be relieved of such sin and error.
Human is a mere Creature. Cannot create anything higher than them self. So human, cannot rise to the Nature of the Divine, unless the Divine first comes into that human and makes them a part of Its Own Divinity.
All humans, who do not get a part of this Divine Essence, will be left in their Natural state. While they may progress to higher degrees of goodness and freedom from sin, and from everything that tends to make them unhappy, yet, they will be only Natural humans, still.
I came into the World to show humans, The Way to this Divine Love of the Father, and teach them His Spiritual Truths. My mission was that, in all its perfection, and incidentally, to teach them the way to greater happiness on Earth, as well as in the Spirit World, by teaching them the way to the Purification of the Natural Love, even though they neglected to seek for, and obtain, this Divine Love and become One with the Father.
Let humans ponder this momentous question! They will learn, that the happiness of the Natural Human, and the Happiness of the human who has obtained the Attributes of Divinity, are very different.In All Eternity, must be separate and distinct. My teachings are not very hard to understand and follow. If humans will only listen to them, believe them, and follow them, they will learn The Way, and obtain the One Perfect State of Happiness, which The Father has prepared for His Children. No human can obtain this State of Celestial Bliss, unless they first get this Divine Love of the Father, and so become At-One with the Father.
I know it is thought and taught that Morality, correct living, and great Natural Love, will assure a human's future happiness. To a degree this is True. This happiness is not that Greater Happiness, which God Desires His Children to have. To show The Way to which I came to Earth to teach. In some hearts, and minds, my Truths found a lodgment, and were preserved to save humankind from Total Spiritual Darkness, and a relapse to worship of form and ceremony only.
I have written you this, to show that you must not let the teachings of the Bible, and what humans wrote, or professed to have written therein, keep you from receiving and understanding what I write.
I shall write no more tonight. I will continue to tell you the Truths, which will be "My New Gospel to All Humans". When they have heard my messages, they will believe that there is only One God, and Only One, to be worshiped.
With my Love and blessings, I close for this time.
March 24th, 1915
I am here, your Grandmother.
Well, my son, what a beautiful and comforting letter you got from the Master. He was so Loving, and so interested in your happiness that he seemed almost like a new relative. I mean that in the human sense. Of course, he is nearer to you in Love than any of us, because his capacity for Loving is so much greater. He seemed so very human, in the sense of coming so close to you, and making you feel that you and he are True Brothers. I doubt if he has ever come so close to any mortal before. His Love for you seems to be a thing of no limitation or bounds. He Loves you so much, that he even lets his Love do things, which he does not engage in among mortals. I mean in interfering in their material things of their lives. As he said, spirits of lesser greatness and development help mortals in their earthly affairs. We all wonder that Jesus should make himself so humble, as we say, to do what he has done for you. He knows what is best. You should feel yourself among the most blessed of humans. I know that you cannot understand this. Neither can we. He is the wisest of us all, and the most powerful. When he tells you a thing, you may believe it.
Of course, his Great Mission is to teach the Wonderful Truths of his Father. He sees the best way to disseminate them among humankind. You have been selected by him for this work. You will do it with all your heart and soul, I know. I know how you feel. You will be able to carry out your desires, for he has decreed it. It will be done. So my dear son, consider yourself as one set aside for this great work. Let all your ambitions and aspirations urge you to its performance.
Well, he knows. When he said it, he knew what your future would be. It is certainly marvelous. We all thank the Father that you have such wonderful promises. Only pray, and have Faith. You will realize these promises.
Yes, I know that you are a very great sinner. You know this Great Love of the Father was created, or rather, has always been for the Redemption of the vilest sinner who seeks and believes.
Yes. I was astonished at his answers. They involve so much that you will not readily comprehend their full significance until you have progressed more in your Spiritual Development. Know this, that such Love, as he expressed, is sufficient to help you in every time of trouble, and to make you a wonderfully bright and happy human, and spirit. His Love is past finding out.
Neither do I now. Someday, you will. There will come such an avalanche of Happiness as will almost transport you to the Celestial Spheres. Oh my dear boy, you have before you a wonderful future of Love and Happiness. If you will only follow the Master's Teachings (as he writes them), and do his will, and reciprocate his Love.
Well dear, I must stop now, as others are here and want to write.
I have met Garfield and have had a talk with him. He is a spirit of wonderful intellect, but of not much Spiritual Development. I told him of this Great Love, how it operates, and what results it brought to the believing spirits. I think that he was somewhat impressed, is now thinking about the matter, and frequently talking to Mr. Riddle of the subject. You will be surprised to learn how Mr. Riddle has progressed in Faith and Love, and is praying all the time for more Light and greater abundance of Divine Love. He will soon be in the Fifth Sphere, where your father and Prof. Salyards are. They will find congenial companionship. He will soon write you a long letter telling of his progress. He seems to Love you, with a very wonderful Love. Is with you, very often, trying to help you and comfort you.
Well I must say goodnight.
Your Loving Grandmother.
March 24th, 1915
I am here, your own dear and loving Helen.
Well, see how obedient I am. It was a very great pleasure to obey you in that way, as you know.
Well sweetheart, you have had some wonderful messages tonight. I feel that they will help you very much in your moments of trouble and worry. I was so glad that the Master wrote you as he did. He was so very Loving and brotherly, and seemed to be so much interested in your welfare.
He is so beautiful, that we all stand and gaze at him, as you say on Earth. So Loving, that we feel that he is our great big, Loving brother. I tell you, that without him, this Spirit World would not be the place of happiness that it is, to us who believe in him, Love him, and follow his teachings. So many spirits do not know him as their Loving Brother and Way Shower. They are left to their own thoughts to find happiness. So you see the great privilege and opportunity we, who know him as the son of the Father, have over those who know him not. Having eyes, they see not, and ears they hear not. It seems so strange to me, but I tell you that it is True. The Master, with his great Love, Wisdom, and Power, passes them by. They see him not. I try so hard to teach many spirits what a knowledge of him means; but they seem so dull of comprehension, and so darkened in their souls development, that my work is often in vain. Yet, I have hope, and continue my work, knowing that at some unexpected moment, a ray of Light may break in, and they commence to think that God lives to give them His Great Love, and take them to His Care and Protection, in the way that we have told you of.
My heart yearns so for these blind spirits, and willful rejecters of the Truth of the New Birth. Many of these spirits are very excellent Moral people. Live lives of uprightness and Love for their fellow spirits. Work very hard to help the less enlightened to progress to conditions of comparative happiness. Yet they, themselves, will not listen to our teachings of the Greater Truths, which if understood and obeyed would carry them to conditions of inexpressible happiness. Well, such is the work of spirits on Earth, as well as here. We are all trying to do the Work of the Father, in helping to redeem souls.
You are much better than when you come to your room tonight. I am so glad of it. Only trust in the Master's promises. You will not be disappointed.
I heard what he said about your progressing to a condition, even while on Earth, that would enable you to enter the Celestial Spheres when you come over. I believe it to be True. Now, you must try to get this very great development, because when you come to me, I want you to come to my home to live. Won't that be joyful! Yes, my dear Ned, I know that you will try. I will help you so hard to accomplish it, so will all. Your great helper will be the Master. You will be with him so much, that his Love will overshadow you, so that your soul will have to develop. So you see how you are blessed in all this. Try to do his work with all your heart and soul. You will succeed.
Yes, I heard. When the time comes, I will be with you, to suggest and advise. You will have a beautiful room for your purpose. I know that we will have many joyous evenings together. We will bring Heaven with us. You will live in it for minutes at a time. You will then hear our voices in talk, and song. Feel our presence, so palpably, that you will know that we are with you. I am so anxious for that time to come, as are all of us.
Yes, we will all try to help you get the home. Then you will be fixed for Life. Well, wait until the time comes. You may change your mind. Of course, I would prefer that you should not. If your comfort and happiness could be provided for otherwise, I would rather have it as you suggest. You will have to wait.
Well, sweetheart, you have written much and must stop.
She is well and a little troubled, but it will soon disappear, as you will do what the Master said.
So with all my Love, and with many hugs and kisses, I am, your own True and Loving Helen.
January 27th, 1915
I am here, your own Helen.
Well, I am engaged, as you know, among other things, in finding the spirits' soulmates, and bringing them together. Well, there is a spirit here who believes that the soulmate theory is a false one, and only intended to deceive those who are so very lonely and unhappy, and that a human who has any stamina, or any intellect, will not be fooled by such ideas as that soulmates exist and are waiting to become one. Well, he was in that condition of loneliness, and was very unhappy. Although he had very great intellectual acquirements, and prided himself on that fact, he thought that love and kindred things are for women and foolish men, when he was suddenly visited by a most beautiful spirit, and asked if he had yet found his soulmate. He replied that he had not, and did not want to, unless she should happen to be as beautiful as the spirit who was talking to him. That if such a thing could be, he would be most happy to find her.
Well, she asked him why he should suppose that his soulmate would be so beautiful, when he was a spirit who was not so very attractive looking, all crooked, and devoid of anything that would tend to make him appreciate beauty, or love, in another. He said that he did not consider himself so unattractive as she said, because he was possessed of a knowledge of very many things that the ordinary spirit did not have, and that, consequently, he must be more attractive looking than she described him to be. And as to Love, why he could Love, he thought, if he could find anyone whom he considered worth being loved. Then she told him that she was his soulmate, but that he could never have her until he acquired more Love, and larger understanding of Spiritual Things. That her home was up in the Fifth Sphere, and that he could not go there to live with her, until he had gotten sufficient Love in his soul to make him fitted to dwell there. That the longer he delayed trying to get this Love, the longer he would be separated from her, and would, now that he knew she was his soulmate, be most unhappy. That his intellectual acquirements would not help him very much. That the only thing that would enable him to progress to where she lived was a development of Love in his soul.
He said that he did not know much about Love, but that if she would only show him the way to obtain it, he would devote his whole soul and efforts to getting it. She then told him that he must give up the pride, which he indulged in, and which kept him so encased in himself, and learn to Love everybody else in a brotherly way, and God with all his heart and soul. That when he made that effort, he would find that this Love, which she, as his soulmate must have from him, would come to him. He would soon realize that in all the Spirit World, Love is the greatest thing to possess. That, when a spirit has that, they need nothing else to make them happy.
He did not seem to comprehend what she said, but said he would try to let his pride of intellect leave him, and make an effort to let his soul receive this Love. That thereafter, Love should be first, knowledge and everything merely intellectual follow after.
So, you see, a soulmate may be found, but not acquired, until Love commensurate with the Love possessed by the higher soul is gotten by the lower soul.
No merely intellectual acquirement is sufficient to attract and make one, two soulmates. Only Love, in perfect harmony, can bring about this union. Let Love rule, and happiness is the lot of all spirits. Of course, this Love is comparative, and so is the ensuing happiness.
Your own true and loving Helen.
January 27th, 1915
I am here, Helen.
Yes, we will try. You are in a better condition than you were tonight, at the office. I will be able to write in a more connected manner.
Well, I was present when Jen passed over, and took her in my arms and carried her to a place in the Earth Plane, where she will live until she progresses to a higher sphere. She was very glad to see me, for she recognized me, and said: "Oh, Helen; where am I? It seems so strange that I should be with you."
I told her, she had passed from the mortal Life to the Spirit Life. That now she must not think of her body, or that she can ever enter it again. She did not quite understand me, but said; That she did not see why she should not reenter her body, as it was only asleep, and would want her as soon as it should awaken. I told her that never again would she enter her body. That she had ceased to be a mortal. That just as soon as her body should be buried, she would realize that she is a spirit. That no more would she live on Earth as a mortal, but that she would visit her dear ones on Earth many times, but not in a physical form. She is still in darkness as to this matter. I am trying my best to help her realize that she is a spirit. She is somewhat confused, because she tries to talk to George (her husband) and he won't listen to her. She says: "My dear is very deaf and that is why he doesn't hear me". I tell her that he cannot hear her, as her voice is only a spirit voice, and his ears are not attuned to hear spirit voices.
She will soon realize, to some extent, that she can no longer talk to George, or any of her friends. Then will come the full understanding that she is really a spirit.
She is with her body now, and sees the presence of her husband, and relatives. But as I said, does not comprehend why they do not notice her presence, or tell her why they do not notice her presence, or tell her what the trouble is. She sees them sorrowing, yet she does not understand why they should do so, as she says, she knows that when she awakens she will become a part of her body again. So I can do nothing more now, but to let her know that I, and her other spirit friends, are with her, and will not leave her until after she realizes that no more is her body to become her home.
Her mother is with her, and so is her father. They are trying to help her, also. Her mother is a very bright spirit, and is filled with God's Love, and has her home in the Fifth Sphere, where she is very happy.
Her father is in the Earth Plane, yet. He is not very spiritual, but thinks more of earthly matter, and does not turn his thoughts to higher things. But some day he will. Then will see that real happiness, can only be found in the things which are of God, and His Love.
Jen's soulmate is here and is in the Third Sphere. He has never met her on Earth, but he knows that she is his soulmate. That as soon as she awakens to her condition, he will meet her, and tell her that she is his for All Eternity, and that his happiness is her happiness. That they must both try to progress to the Higher Spheres, where True Happiness may be found. He is a very beautiful spirit and is in possession of much of God's Divine Love.
George's soulmate is still on Earth, but she does not live in Washington. He will probably never meet her. She is a woman of about thirty-six years of age, and is not very Spiritual, but is a great church member. So he will never again meet Jen as his wife, for she is another's.
Jen's body will be buried in the Earth, as was mine. But, sweetheart, she will not be there, any more than I am there. When her body is finally laid away, she will never go to the place where it is buried, unless her folks go there and weep over her grave. In that way attract her to them. She doesn't want them to do that, as I know from my own experience.
(More questions and answers unrecorded, but will print what is written.)
Well, we will see. Maybe she will not want to. If she does, I will certainly communicate it. She thought that she did, but really did not. Now, when she learns the Truth, she will not feel any attraction towards him, but maybe she will, as we cannot so soon forget our mortal loves, even though we find the Real Love after we come over. When I think of that, it may be that she will want to send him a message of comfort.
Yes, that was singular coincidence. But you see, we never know when the summons will come for us to pass over. We both expected to return home soon, as we were feeling much better. Were happy in the thought; but in a moment, the summons came. Quickly we passed to this home of delight and freedom from care and suffering.
Your own True and Loving, Helen.
January 31st, 1915
I am here, Jesus.
As I told you, I will write my second message tonight. I am not going to tell you of my Father's Kingdom at this time, but of His Nature, as my God and your God.
He is the Only One who is Supreme, All Powerful, Loving, and Wise. He is not a being of form, or individuality, as humans understand, but is a (Spiritual) Substance of Being and Soul. His Soul is that part of Him, which embraces all the Affections and Divine Love, and which is bestowed on humans, in order that they may become like their Father.
I am not yet so possessed of that Soul Essence, as to make me just like the Father in All His Attributes. I expect that some time in the future, when I have received that Divine Essence in all its fullness, I will be likened unto the Father. So may every one of His Creatures (human souls), if they will only seek for It with True Faith and Earnestness.
The Father is not capable of being seen with the physical, or spiritual sight. Can only be seen with the "soul's eyes" of Perfect Love (Divine Love). He is not in any particular place, or seated on a throne in His Heavens, but His Attributes are everywhere, and fills the Whole Universe. The Earth is a very small portion of the Universe. Humans must not believe that God is only in the Heavens, where the sons of Earth go when they cease to live as mortals.
God is a God of Love, above everything else. The sooner humankind learns and believes that fact, the sooner will happiness exist on the Earth, as well as in the Heavens. He is not a God of hatred, nor does He chastise His Children in wrath, or anger. His Love is with all humankind, be they saints or sinners. No human suffers punishment because the Father wants them to suffer. He is also a God of Mercy and Forgiveness. Will forgive the sins of humans, and shed His Mercy over them, if they will Truly, and in sincerity, ask His Forgiveness and seek His Mercy.
He is also a God of Wisdom. His Plans, for the Redemption and Salvation of Humankind, are the only Plans that can be adopted for humans to try to follow, in order that they may receive this Salvation. He is also a God of Power. In the days to come, when He sees fit to carry out and perfect His Plans in their full fruition, He will, through the working of His Spirit, which is Perfect in its working, destroy all sin and error in His Universe. Perfect Harmony will reign. Human will be at Peace and Happiness.
So, God is everything in Nature and Attributes, which will not only Redeem humans from their sins, but will make them lovers of one another, and brothers (and sisters) in the True Sense of the word. The world will not be destroyed, as it is taught by some, in the interpreting of the Bible. When the great day of judgment comes, all sin will be eradicated from the World. Humankind will continue to live upon the Earth, free from sin and unhappiness, just as it is supposed Adam and Eve lived in the Garden of Eden.
Never has human seen God. The stories, in the Old Testament, about some of the prophets and leaders of the Jews in their early captivity and wanderings, are not True. God cannot be seen, as therein described. His Angels and messengers, who were at one time mortals of Earth were seen, and spoke to the prophets. Represented themselves as being Angels of God. But no angel, or spirit, ever represented them self to be God. Not even the angels who delivered to Moses the tablets of stone, as it is written. God works always through His Angels. Never directly, as some of the Bible writers teach. I was His chosen son to do the work of redeeming the Earth from sin. I came as my Father's Representative. I never was God. Nor did I ever claim to be, either to my disciples, or to the Jews, or the Sanhedrin.
It is written in the Bible, that the "Voice of God" spoke to my disciples on the Mount of Transfiguration, to John (the Baptist) and those present at my baptism. It was not the "Voice of God", but the voice of one of God's Highest Angels.
No human has ever heard the "Voice of God"! He has no "Voice". He works in a silent mysterious way, through the operation of His Soul, upon the souls of humans, just as the coming of the Holy Ghost at Pentecost. While the Bible says that there was a noise as of a mighty wind, yet that was not perceptible to the physical ears of the disciples, but in their souls they felt the Presence of such a manifestation. In order to have humankind understand that there was this wonderful manifestation, they used the imagery of the voice of a mighty wind. So human must understand, that God speaks to human through His Angels, or through the communication of His Soul and theirs.
I speak thus, because I want it made plain that God is not the person, loving or otherwise, which the Bible may teach human that He is. He is only the Personification of Love, Power, and Wisdom. He is without form, or personal appearance. This is my Knowledge of what God is.
I will not write further tonight. With my blessing and Love, Jesus.
January 31st, 1915
I am here, Your Grandmother.
You must not think that because the Master said that God is a Personification of Love, Power, and Wisdom, that there is no Real God, but merely an abstract being representing these attributes. He is a Real Being. These Attributes are His. He is not the combination of the attributes. He Exists. Without Him, there would be no love, wisdom, or power. He is the Creator of these Principles, and not their creature.
As Jesus said: He is without form or substance, such as mortals and spirits have, yet He has a Spiritual Substance that is Real, not shadowy, or non existent. Pantheism is different from what God Is.
While His Attributes are everywhere, yet He is of an identical Substance of Spirit. So do not let the idea possess you, that he is not a Being, for He Is. Even though we cannot see Him, or feel Him as a Spirit, yet He Exists, as His One True Self. So believe in a personal God, in that sense.
I know that it is hard to comprehend the True Conception of His Being, but the higher we get in the scale of Love, the more apparent becomes His Real Existence as a Being. Do not let your inability to grasp the True Meaning of this description of God, and His Nature, lead you to think that He is a mere essence. He is Real! To us, who have received a large amount of His Divine Love and Essence, He becomes as Real as if we could see and feel Him with our Spiritual eyes and hands.
I know the difficulties in the way of your finite mind to grasp the True Conception of His Being. As Divine Love draws you closer to Him, the mind gives way to the perceptions of the soul. God appears as a Real Existing Being, The Creator of All.
I want to tell you further, that God, while He works through His angels, yet He, Himself, comes into our souls by His Direct Communication. The Holy Spirit is His messenger that causes the souls of humans to hear and receive this SOUL communication. Yet God's Divine Love comes direct from Himself. When human was Created, in the likeness of God, they were given a soul, that was capable of receiving the Soul Essence (Divine Love) of the Father. Neither in his physical, nor spiritual, form was human created in the image of his Father, because the Father has no such forms. But, in the soul essence, the image was made alike.
Yet human is of such a great degree in God's Creation, that they can refuse to receive this Soul Essence (Divine Love), if they so wills. Their soul is capable of receiving It, but is not compelled to do so. While human has the image, yet if they neglect to receive the Substance (Divine Love), they will never become At-One with the Father. That image will never be more than an image only.
God is so Good, that He implanted in human's soul, what may be called the Natural Love. That Natural Love is sufficient to make them comparatively happy. In the great day when sin and error shall be destroyed, human's Natural Love will be able to cause this happiness. But human will not be At-One with the Father in the larger (Divine) sense, and will not take on the Divine Nature of their God. So you see the necessity of seeking this Wonderful Union with the Father.
I must now stop. Your Grandmother (Ann Rollins)
